Feeling the pain of the workplace

Work-related deaths, injuries, and illness are daily occurrences in workplaces around the world. Over 2.3 million people annually lose their lives because of employment-related accidents or illnesses. And according to a study by iHASCO*, the year-on-year increase in people who suffer from job-associated stress, depression, or anxiety is 30% (UK).

The risks are clear – in addition to damaging workplace productivity and morale, lack of consideration for health and safety can lead to injuries, long-term illnesses (physical and mental), and in all too many cases death. Failure to implement an appropriate health and safety policy can expose the company to negligence claims and legal penalties. Yet, while the benefits of health and safety at work are compelling, many workers are still left in harm’s way, making it clear that advancement of health and safety in the workplace is urgent.

Ensure your workplace – on-premises or remote – is as free from hazards as possible. Use Speeki’s platform to help inform and enhance employee health in your ESG initiatives. And extend this concern along your supply chain by making safe working conditions a criterion for supplier selection, and monitoring compliance.

Pick up on health and safety messages, both subtle and obvious

Organisation-related health and safety messages abound in the market, whether they’re as low-key as mentioning someone using a rice cooker under their desk, or as clear as a report about how managerial harassment is directly correlated to an employee’s visits to a mental health specialist.

While reports are direct, the subtle voices are often obscured by “noise”. Capture the hidden comments with Speeki’s Signals tools – Sentiments, Conversations, Interviews, and Messaging.

Dot the workplace chart where health and safety problems seem most rampant

Workplaces – on-site or remote – are filled with hazards that impact health and safety, but not all are physical. Mental wellbeing is also affected by working environments.

Employ Speeki’s Insights services to help you visualise the current health and safety scene, as well as project probable future scenarios that need to be addressed.

Build a healthier and safer workplace

Intangible threats, as well as physical ones to health and safety, require the implementation of ESG initiatives and best practices to minimise and manage associated risks. The Covid-19 pandemic has brought a massive increase in working from home, with a consequent need to enhance employee consciousness of safety risks beyond the control of their employers.

Use Speeki’s suite of Actions tools – training, audits, gap analysis, ratings, certifications, and programme improvement – to ensure your workplace is as free from health and safety liabilities as possible.
